I just wanted to share some updates. I'm a year and 7 months out from taking a tiny dose of Prozac for 2 weeks. My libido has returned in the last few months, but the genital anesthesia, particularly in my clitoris, continues to be an issue. It waxes and wanes in severity. Orgasms are somewhat satisfying but nowhere near what they used to be and there has to be a lot of pressure. I feel them more in my head than I do in the genital region. Like the rush of endorphins has returned but not those tingly, full sensations genitally. If I try to have a second orgasm, it will be a lot weaker and more numb than the first.
Here's a list of things I'm noticing help, along with what negatively impacts me. Again even with/without these factors, it still seems to vary week to week, and I can't really seem to pinpoint why. Anyone in a similar position as far as libido goes? I'd appreciate any insight or advice, thanks!
Things that seem to help
- Adequate sleep
- Vaginal estradiol cream (I wonder if testosterone cream would help men?)
- Ambien
- Abstaining from too much masturbation/sex
- Having a full bladder prior to attempting orgasm
- Regular meditation
- Lack of sleep
- Progesterone cream/pills
- Large doses of Vitamin D
- Stress
Things that don't seem to have any effect
- Fish oil
- Caffeine
